Leader of Extreme Battling Title (UFC) Dana White made a critical declaration about during Saturday's milestone UFC 300 occasion.
Subsequent to keeping fan sin the dull for quite a long time, White, 54, on Saturday formally declared that UFC star Conor McGregor, 35, will be getting back to battle against his long-lasting opponent Michael Chandler, 35, inside the Octagon, Day to day Mail revealed.
The two warriors have been planned to confront each other for quite some time and, surprisingly, trained A definitive Contender Program against one another.
In spite of the fact that hypothesis has been overflowing, White formally proclaimed that the match will happen on June 29, as a five-round headliner, at a load of 70lbs.
At the point when inquired as to why the battle had been deferred for so long, the UFC president made sense of that McGregor was as of late ready to prepare for his re-visitation of the Octagon.
"It isn't so much that we've been chipping away at it for a very long time," White said. "There are a wide range of things that happen in the background. Everything revolves around timing.
"Chandler has been prepared however Conor hasn't been prepared. We discussed this at one of the public interviews as of late, he had a ton of commitments that he needed to manage.
"What you don't need him doing is tolerating a battle when he has a lot of commitments and he can't prepare 100 percent for a battle."
This declaration comes after Alex Pereira took out Jamahal Slope in the absolute first round for the light-heavyweight title in the UFC 300 headliner.
Before that, Maximum Holloway figured out how to take out Justin Gaethje as of now.
